We have them in the correct offset for your car. We regularly ship overseas (which is a bit expensive but gets there).
We just added a bunch more wheels to the site (check out the vendors section).

We've been selling replica wheels for at least 10 years. The information on that link, while in certain circumstances valid for some aftermarket wheels, it seems a little self-serving as well coming from someone that doesn't sell replica wheels.
We sell over 100 sets of wheels every year and have yet to have anyone return any single wheel due to a defect.

Are those Competition reps available in silver too, or just gunmetal?
If you still have either one of these available after the holidays, I'll order a set.
no offense inked, but some of the "facts" in that link are comical. That is a straight up 100% opinion piece written by someone who stands to profit from you choosing OEM wheels over reps. I stopped giving it any credence at the first "fact" which states OEM manufacturers make their wheels less susceptible to damage from potholes, which does nothing to explain why hundreds of E60 owners are rolling around on crack-repaired 124s....
